Created to do good works

Ephesians 2:10
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

I've been at the new workplace for 6 weeks and boy has it been a very tough affair to adapt back to the regular-sleep-early-wake up routine, plus the need to get back to work and deal with idiotic situations constantly drive me up the wall.

As various work situations grieve or frustrate me, I can't help but start to realise my tone is rising in annoyance as the days go by.

Today as I read this verse, I'm reminded that it's more than just do work. There's an important need to remember that in everything we are created to do, in Christ Jesus we are to do good works.
